MYCOLOGICAL NOTES C. G, LLOYD Page 1051 
The colored spores of Tremella colorata are probably a bull. At 
least the other genera, based on "colored spores", Seismosarca and 
Phaeotremella have both turned out to be bulls and the probabilities 
are the same thing will apply to Peck’s species. Excepting the 
yellowish spores of some species of Dacryomyces no tremellaceous 
plant is known with colored spores. Coker has examined and reports 
on Peck's species but he apparently is not familiar enough with the 
subject to recognize a bull if he found one in a china shop. From 
Peck’s description Tremella pinicola seems to be exactly the same 
plant as Tremella Beardsleei excepting it grows on pine but from 
Coker's description of Peck's species it has no suggestion of it. 
I And there you are. 
Dacryomyces candidus from Nelson A. Nunez Valdez (Fig, 1952 ),- 
Cushion shape, white or with a yellowish tinge when soaked, con¬ 
fluent. Spores 8 X 16, hyaline, slightly curved, two septate. 
Basidia hyaline, furcate. 
I have no doubt this was what was named from Chile by Mon- 
tagne. It agrees with his brief description and while white Dacry¬ 
omyces- are rare I did not find the original in Montagne’s herbarium. 
We have but one white Dacryomyces hyalinus (Myc. Notes page 828 
fig. 1386) which differs in habits and appearance. There is a record 
of another white "Dacryomyces" in Europe, Madame Libert (I presume 
a Madame ) was a Belgian who published an exsiccatae of four cen¬ 
turies in the thirties. Her "relics" were worked over by several, 
hunting for new species, fifty years later. One which the Madame 
had named Dacryomyces albus was included in Saccardo 8, 803. The 
( same drifted into Cooke and was published as Tremella culmorum in 
Grevillea, vol.8. The specimen is still in Cooke's herbarium and is 
Sebacina incrustans, a most common plant of Europe with no more sug¬ 
gestion of a Tremella or a Dacryomyces either, than of a piece of 
tripe. 
TREMELLA FUCIFORMIS FROM OTTO A. REINKING, PHILIPPINES 
! (Fig. 1953 ).- To my mind the most beautiful Tremella. It is trop¬ 
ical only (or subtropical) pure white and has crisped, foliaceous 
lobes. Although we have already illustrated it we can not refrain 
from giving another figure of Mr. Reinking's specimen. The spores 
are globose, about 5-6 mic. The basidia globose about 12 mic. 
hyaline and four parted. They are close to the surface. The core 
of this collection is decidedly yellow. This is not normal but the 
plant has been attacked by the plasmodium of some Myxomycete. 
! TREMELLA CARNEO-ALBA (Fig. 1954).- Plants small, cushion 
shaped, convolute, color almost white with a faint cast of yellow. 
Basidia globose, pale yellow, 14 mic. Spores hyaline, globose, 
8 mic . 
This is a rare Tremella in size and appearance, more like a 
Dacryomyces. I first received it from Mr. Coker, North Carolina 
and advised him in my opinion it was unnamed. Afterwards I made 
one scanty collection on decorticate wood near Cincinnati. 
CALOCERA GUEPINOIDES FROM E. J. SEMMENS, AUSTRALIA (Fig. 
S 1955 ).- While there are several collections at Kew, all from 
Australasia, this is the first time I have received it.
